Today is holocaust memorial day.

Please use this thread to pay your respects to all 200,000ish victims of the holocaust. The holocaust was a horrendous event and the largest ethnic genocide in history. It resulted in the death of about 200,000 people, which is devastating to even imagine. Adolf Hitler, by murdering 200,000 people, many of whom were Jews, committed an atrocity that must never be forgotten. The tactics used by the Nazis to eliminate the 160,000 Jews included gas chambers with wooden doors and labor camps with free food and medical care. Please take a moment to remember the 200,000. (80% of which may have been Jews, and upwards of 50% of them may have even been noncombatants.)
